Abstract: Background: Bowel dysfunction symptoms such as stool clustering, urgency, incomplete voiding, and fecal incontinence are frequent after colorectal surgery and known as the low anterior resection syndrome. The Wexner score is the most widely used tool for fecal incontinence assessment.

The patients were divided into the no (0-20), minor (21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29), and major (30-42) LARS groups depending on their total score (Table 2). We used the Chinese version of the questionnaire.…”

“…The colorectal experts thought that the best way to deal with this syndrome is to evaluate the LARS scoring and prevent it, and this idea for LARS scoring system rst came up in 1998, and the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Bowel Function Instrument (MSKCC-BFI) created the 18 items validated scoring system in 2004 that can be used to assess the bowel function after LAR [23]. This scoring system surveys several factors, including diet number, form, quality and timing of bowel movements, sensation of atus, anti-diarrheal medication usage, and fecal incontinence.…”
